This is the most annoyingly clickbait post of all time on this sub.

“I got scammed in JC multiple times but I can’t tell you what any of the scammy places are so please just pretend that my advice isn’t absolutely useless!”

You said this has happened more than once. Name the other places this happened at then?

It’s not. I was being generous when I said 18-20. The standard really is 20.

Let’s put it this way. If your idea of a reasonable tip amount starts a debate, that’s a pretty surefire way to know it’s not a good tip and you’re being cheap.

If you can’t afford to tip 18-20% on a bill, then you should reevaluate the places you can afford to eat/drink at. That is a standard tip amount.

Above ground: Yes, it's disappointing when you consider other major cities have cross-river paths but we have the 3rd largest port in the country, which they do not. Because of the size of the ships, this bridge would need to be monstrously tall, which would sort of defeat the purpose. It wouldn't be that easy/fast to get across, and probably wouldn't have the chill "I'll go for a nice walk" vibes we imagine when we think of being able to walk across the river (see: GWB). That said, I'm no cargo/marine traffic expert, but I assume there's a logical reason we can't pull this off.

• EDIT: The Walkway Over the Hudson and the GWB actually both have the same clearance height so IDK shit. Now I'm actually curious about the logistical feasibility of this existing from JC to Manhattan. I imagine no one wants to fund it because it won't generate any revenue, unless you make it accessible to cars and charge tolls, which would then make it a behemoth of a project and create more traffic and get local opposition and back to square one we go.

Below ground: The thought of it gives me claustrophobia and phantom pee smells and I'd rather take the PATH.

Hahaha I literally came here to say this.

People on this sub: there’s too much LUXURY HOUSING we’re being priced out

Also people on this sub: this affordable unit is hideous it should be cheaper!

🤦‍♀️

Bob White sounds like the name of a hardware store. Also I’ve lived in JC for 7 years and haven’t heard of this place and feel stupid because French fries are my desert island food. Tell me more about Bob White please.

Yeah the PATH actually runs on the posted schedule so that part is always super accurate. The subway does not but because it comes so frequently even if its off by 2 minutes the overall trip is still pretty spot-on. I’ve lived in NYC for 15 years and still use GMaps whenever I’m going anywhere lol

The only thing it’s not good for is giving you options that combine transit+walking. Sometimes not transferring to a subway and just walking is about the same as 2 trains, but it doesn’t show you that as an option.

Google Maps allows you to look at public transit route options and compare them. It’s actually pretty accurate!

I tried to use my W2 and they told me no. It’s not a government document.
